Each episode, one of the hosts presents a game from their childhood, including a brief history of its development and any personal anecdotes. After playing the game off-mic, the second half of the podcast is a discussion of how it holds up and whether the nostalgia factor still stands.

We are capping off this year's Mario and Sonic saga with a relaxed trip down memory lane, on to Memory airport where we will catch a short flight over the Memory ocean and come to land on Isle Delfino, along with all our Mushroom Kingdom pals. Then we'll watch as Mario gets banged up abroad for being a hooligan. I don't know where I'm going with this, but I do know that this week's game is Super Mario Sunshine. Is it still any good? Listen in and find out!

We continue our jaunt through Sonic and Mario month 2024 with this game where you play as a blue hedgehog running round collecting rings and that. Time travel and the Mega CD / Sega CD are this game's USPs, and Chris has fond memories of playing the PC re-release in the late 90s. Will this swing Ashley into agreeing that Sonic games are alright, really?

To kick-start our annual Sonic and Mario month, Chris takes us back to the heady days of October 2023 (a mere 3 months ago at time of release) to wander through Super Mario Wonder, a 2D Switch platformer that harks back to classic Mario and certainly not all the New Super Mario nonsense. Join us as we talk about Wonder Flowers, boost badges and elephant Mario!

As 2023 draws to a close, Chris and Ashley take a ramshackle look back at their gaming highlights of the year. At least, that was the brief but neither of us followed it. What a shambles. We then discuss what we're looking forward to in 2024 - see you for for Sonic and Mario month in January 2024!

It's Chrimbo Limbo, that lull between Christmas and New Year. Ashley and Chris are marking the occasion by recommending a game they have each enjoyed this year, which might make a lovely treat for yourself or someone else during the festive period. This year's choices are Vampire Survivors and Dredge - give us a listen to find out why we think they'd make perfect presents.

What is there to say? Conker's Bad Fur Day has made its own reputation and, in 2001 Ashley succumbed to that by putting it on his Christmas list. Alongside American college frat houses, adolescent boys were probably the second-most target for Nintendo and Rare's irreverent team-up, and it certainly went down well with our then-teenage host. But is it any good now? Listen in to find out!

Christmas, Chris says, is for doing whatever you want, so he's gone and thrown his own rules out of the window and brought a Mario game for us to play this festive season. Making its first appearance on the Nintendo DS, New Super Mario Bros. became a staple of every Nintendo console lineup for the next 15 years. Chris gifted it for Christmas in 2007, and now he's trying to spread the festive joy by gifting it to us. But is it any good? Let's find out!
